By far, the most common questions I get around starting a career in cybersecurity and or ethical hacking
and how this course will help in securing a great job, well, so it's true.
Jobs in cybersecurity can be very exciting, rewarding and well paid.
I've certainly loved working in security, hacking into systems and defending them against active attacks.
So it is worth considering a career in cybersecurity if of course, cybersecurity does interest you.
If we look here, we can see the this is for the US.
The US Bureau of Labor Statistics reports that an information security analyst, which is an example
of a job, the average sort of job in cybersecurity, earns nearly 100000 dollars per year.
So, you know, you are well paid and it's a fun job.
And the other great news, if we go to job outlook, scroll down a little bit here.
Employment of information security analyst is projected to grow 32 percent from twenty eighteen to twenty
twenty eight.
So much faster than the average for all all the occupations, i.e. there are loads of jobs.
So the same statistics bear out for all developed countries to so well-paid jobs, lots of jobs available.
The cybersecurity unemployment rate was a zero percent in twenty nineteen where it has been for the
last eight years.
There is predicted to be three point five million unfulfilled cybersecurity jobs by 2021, up from one
million positions in 2014.
And these jobs very well paid.
As I've shown, it's also often claimed at the cybersecurity industry.
Is recession proof, recession proof Korea?
Well, I guess we'll see on that.
And many roles like penetration testing, ethical hacking, they can be done remotely to.
So really, it's never been a better time to start a career in cybersecurity, which is why I get so
many questions about careers in cybersecurity and ethical hacking.
So what I did was I put together a great guide, which is here on how to start a career in cybersecurity,
covering all the common questions I get and are asked every day because there are some legitimate barriers
to entering the industry, like just where to start, what courses to take, what certificates are important,
how to gain experience and so on.
And I cover all the solutions to securing a great job in my guide and how this course that you're taking
fits into this overall picture for you.
You can find the cybersecurity guide, obviously, at this you Orell, or you could just simply Google
Station X Career Guide and you'll just find it is the one at the top.
The guide has just been updated for this year and has so far been downloaded by half a million people
in the last two years.
So that's really great.
But still, there's loads of jobs out there.
And because you have special access to me through this course, if you have any questions after reading
it, then, you know, just just ask me if you've got any career questions, of course.
And only technical questions on the on the course itself.
So, you know, go download the guide if you're even just slightly interested in a career because,
you know, maybe it's an opportunity for you.
We certainly do need the people in the industry.
There's a gap and there's a problem for the world, essentially, because we haven't got enough people
to help secure systems and organizations.
So check out the guide.
It will help and it will make things much clearer.
Give you a clearer picture.
